Scientists at the University of Texas El Paso (UTEP) and the University of Central Florida (UCF) have developed a new light bending device which allows for a more effective means through which data can be rapidly transmitted through electronic circuit boards.

The device, which resembles a plastic honeycomb, is infinitely smaller than a bee’s stinger and capable of steering light beams around tighter curves than previously possible. Which it does while retaining the integrity and the intensity of the beam.
